Check log files - journal and especially the logs Xorg generates - usually found under /var/log for hints. >> When I do a Ctrl-Alt-Del, that's when it reboots. That means the system was still alive and the problem likely does not involve core components (kernel, base programs). Anyway, before you reboot, log in as root and try service gdm3 start (might also just be "service gdm start"). If X comes back, let it run for another 3 days or more to see if it happens again. > I've never HAD to reboot a running system. You must have some rubbish > program running.... My guess too.
